Synopsis

Set in the 1920s, this lively action film follows the exploits of American adventurer Rick who, along with British librarian Evelyn and her brother Jonathan, sets out to uncover the mysteries - and treasures - of the ancient Egyptians. What they actually find is the undead mummy Imhotep - and once he's freed from his pyramid prison, he sets about wreaking havoc, which the unprepared Rick and company must try to prevent. The result is a great, tongue-in-cheek adventure with some cracking one-liners and impressive special effects.

What our educators say

"We are currently screening The Wizard of Oz, profound film that it is, and the last film Wall-E. It's been rewarding observing the KS1 6 year olds run the gamut of emotions from wonder to sadness to joy. "
